The Traders Dynamic Index (TDI) is for assessing market conditions and forecasting price movements. It amalgamates trend analysis, momentum, and volatility components to offer a holistic perspective of the market.

The Traders Dynamic Index (TDI) is a plot to 2 smoothed RSIs on a overbought / oversold grid with a Bollinger Band (with mid-line) of unsmoothed RSI.

The basics are that a signal occurs when the less-smoothed RSI line crosses the more-smoothed RSI line. Reversals are possible near overbought / oversold values, especially near the edges of the Bollinger Band.

Question: I am a new member of "use think script" as of 12-17-20. Do
you use/illustrate the Trader Dynamic Index (TDI) indicator for better entry and exit?

Apologies for the bump, I was hoping if someone would be able to post the code snippet I could add to this to create an alert for the up/down signals....Greatly appreciate your help!
 
@Splinter

Code: 
def bull = RSI1 > BBmidline and RSI1[1] <= BBmidline;
def bear = RSI1 < BBmidline and RSI1[1] >= BBmidline;

# Alerts
Alert(bull, " ", Alert.Bar, Sound.Chimes);
Alert(bear, " ", Alert.Bar, Sound.Bell);
 
this indicator is primarily the RSI with bollinger bands, theres ton of info on it, it calls bottoms and tops, but it also gives many false signals.
heres a simple version of it, the green is pretty much the rsi

Sorry to ask again but I did not receive a response to my question. Is there a way to make the plot variables show up when I create a scan using the Condition wizard? I am looking to create a scans that identify stocks in the s&p 500 when RSI1 crosses above and below RSI2?
 
@Herbee
Click on scan.
Click on +Add filter
Click on the pencil icon next to the filter you just added
Click edit
1. In the left column, click on the pull-down window, click add study
Type in whatever you named your TDI script
2. Under Plot, click on the pull-down window, choose RSI1
3. In the middle column, choose Greater Than
4. In the right column, click on the pull-down window, click add study
Type in whatever you named your TDI script
5. Under Plot, click on the pull-down window, choose RSI2
Save
For RSI1 crossing below RSI2, create a separate scan the same way, except in the middle column choose Less Than.

if you can have a look at the picture there ,,, we have the -- Upper Volatiility band and Lower , RSI , signal Line , but the yellow line is the Base line , the base line also gives a lot of info about the trend going and more important divergences . the script you post is great similar to tradeview in all ways , but is missing online the baseline thats all , if you can add it

Can you please add divergence lines to the TDI?

You might have noticed that there are quite a few scripts floating around the internet and forum that aim to identify various divergences. While their attempt is valiant, the success rates are less than stellar.

That is why, a divergence adaptation would not be a good fit for this script.
Manual chart analysis is the only tried and true method for identifying divergence. It might take a bit more effort, but it's worth it for the accuracy.
